dancers get to the stadium about 8:00 a.m., and run through their routines four or five times with the band. After that, as the saying goes, the show must go on.

Multiply all those hours of practice by the number of home football games, one or two basketball games, an occasional awaygame and other appearances, and that's quite a healthy chunk of time that each dancer spends on her feet.

However, the hours invested in each show don't tell the whole story of what it takes to be a RedStepper. Only about 38 of the 200 dancers that try out every year get a chance to put in that many hours every week.

Two auditions are held each year, one in the spring for the campus, and one in the late summer for in-coming freshmen. The girls are taught a basic routine, then the selection process begins.

T

hree rows of dancers take their places on the empty gym floor. They assume their stances and wait quietly. then the music begins.

One, Two, Three, Four.

One, Two, Three, Four.

Step, Two, Three, Four.

Step, Two, Three, Four.

Pivot, Step, Pivot, Step, KICK! .

One dancer in the front row turns the wrong way; another in the back row can't remember what comes next. And then the music stops. "OK, you guys," says one of the co-captains, "it's 'Pivot, Step, Pivot, Step, then KICK,' just like we did at the beginning of the year. Let's try it again."

And the music begins again.

This is how the I.U. RedSteppers spend about 10 hours a week during the football season: practicing. That's two hours a day, five days a week, plus some extra time on the field Saturdays before a game. All this for a routine that lasts only a few minutes. But even the 10 hours the girls spend practicing every week are only a small part of the work that goes into every dance.

The work actually begins with Karen Bailey, a professional dancer and the group's choreographer, and Wilber England, director of bands.

Bailey often visits off-Broadway shows to pick up steps and music that could be incorporated into new routines. She and England then toss ideas around in order to select the music that will be sent to an arranger. When the completed arrangement returns, it is then sent to a copiest. And hold on, that's not all. When the score returns from the copiest, it is distributed to the band, and then parts of it are recorded for Bailey to use in teaching the new routine.

Now the daily practices for the girls come in. England says that Bailey works on perfecting the routine up until about the third day of the week of a show, and sometimes even makes small, final adjustments the day of the game. When Saturday arrives, the

THE RED

The group is narrowed down by faculty judges, once after a first audition, and then again after a second.

However, for many of the dancers, trying out, practicing and performing are just more hours to stack on top of dance experience gained in high school and sometimes even before.

The 30-or-so-odd dancers chosen this year will carry on a tradition that started in 1972 when the first RedSteppers marched onto the field. Every year at homecoming, an alumni group of about 20 former RedSteppers comes back to add a few more hours to their totals by performing with the alumni band.

Soon to be an alumna herself, Kathy Caruthers, a four-year member of the group, says that even after all the performances, she'll never forget her first show. "You walk out onto the field to practice and look up and the stands are all empty. And later in the afternoon when you walk out to perform, you're in total awe; you can't believe the number of people who are watching you perform. But inside, you just have to pretend you don't know."

And then the music begins.

One, Two, Three, Four.

One, Two, Three, Four.

Step, Two, Three, Four.

Step, Two, Three, Four.

And no one turns the wrong way. And everyone remembers what comes next. And the Music goes on.

All-Nighter

Don Furore

6.-

ore than a flame was ignited when the Olympic torch was lit to kick off the Spirit of Sport All-Nighter in Wildermuth Center on February 3. A spirit was sparked that encouraged widespread student support for the Indiana Special Olympics. Students participated in any of dozens of sports events that took place for 24 solid hours.

Since the All-Nighter started nine years ago, it has become the largest fund raiser for the Indiana Special Olympics. This year the All-Nighter exceeded all of the S.O.S. Committee's past fundraising accomplishments by raising over $ 14,000. The money is raised by entry fees from tournament participation, campus-wide Miss-A-Meals, and by community business and citizen support.

For 24 hours, students from every corner of the campus came to test their skill at shooting free throws, bouncing on the trampoline in the bounce-a-thon or getting a group of friends involved in the volleyball tournament.

The All-Nighter offers something for everyone, whether it's watching or participating in the events, or whether it's for sheer fun or a chance to prove one's athletic ability.

If you shy away from demanding physical activity, but still enjoy the spirit of competition, you can get involved in the euchre tournament, Ping-Pong tournament or even a donut-eating contest.

For many students, the All-Nighter provides a great opportunity to socialize. "It's neat to see all these people having fun while they're helping such a good cause," said junior Jaime Baum.

Planning for the All-Nighter starts in August and September when the 17 steering committee chairmen and other volunteers start contacting local businesses and all the university-related organizations in order to urge their participation and support. "It takes a lot of time and hard work to get everything organized," said Stacey Sharfstein, chairman in charge of the Kick-Off Banquet and concessions. "But it's all worth it when you see everyone laughing and getting silly together."

rom "Free For All (the biggest party on campus)" in August, to

Kurt Vonnegut's lecture in October, to Bluegrass Festival in April, not to mention films five nights a week, virtually everyone has attended a Union Board event.

Sixteen student directors and about 250 other student volunteers were part of the 1983-84 Indiana Memorial Union Board. "It was truly a stellar year for quality programming," said Ann Claussen, UB Program Coordinator. Popular programs this year included video jukebox dances, "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown" musical, Campus Comedy Competition, College Bowl, Learning at Leisure classes, and the Amateur Cinematic Competition, to name a few.

Major lectures included Arkady Shevchenko, highest Russian official ever to defect to the West; P.J. O'Rourke, National Lampoon former editor; and Founder's Day speaker Tom Sullivan, author of "If You Could See What I Hear." In November, basketball fans jammed Alumni Hall in the Union for "An Evening with Coach Bob Knight."

A few of the films shown this year were "Risky Business," "Trading Places," and "Flashdance," plus a Foreign film showcase and bimonthly family films, and "A Night at the Oscars" in April. Concerts brought comedian George Carlin, Eddie Money, the Tubes, jazz artists Chick Corea and Gary Burton, and John Cougar Mellencamp.

Whether it meant reserving space, filling helium balloons, contacting professional performers or designing posters and doing public relations, Union Board's 14 committee programming areas had something for everyone, whether you were going to the events or helping to organize them. Being a part of I.U.'s largest programming organization meant making new friends, learning practical and leadership skills, and having a lot of fun. Union Board is a great way for everyone to get involved. Susan Paullin
